I'm on birth control and missed one day but took it the next morning and then took my regulat scheduled. is that a reason for bleeding and cramps?

Yes: Today's birth control pills have very low doses of hormones in them, so missing even 1 day can cause your blood levels to drop enough to start your period. The bleeding will likely last until your next week of placebo pills. If you often have trouble remembering pills, consider another method such as an iud, nuvaring, depoprovera, or implanon.
